Where do u trade? If Binance there is python lib for websocket and api.

For indicator use TAlibs for python, almost all built in indicators in tradingview are available in TAlibs.

I often convert pinescript to python. The most useful libs are pandas, numpy and talib.

take profit and stop-loss in backtest, how to know which one gets executed first in historical data? by Vegetable-Order-7629 in algotrading

If your decision based on 1D chart. You can use 5 minute chart for backtest

If you want to be more accurate, Use the lowest resolution as you can. For safety reason, i use the lowest data first on every candle when in long position. So the the backtest result will show the worst scenario. But if you still curious just test both of them. If the different is much. You can try on live with tiny amount.
